| Description | The paper presents a thematic analysis of Jan Čep’s prose, examining the significance of Marian devotion as a means of achieving the transcendent dimension of a literary work—an essential requirement for a Catholic poet, according to Čep’s essay The Christian Roots of Czech Literature. The analysis explores the types of Marian devotion employed, systematizes them (acts of Marian devotion, objects of Marian devotion, and places of Marian veneration), and illustrates them through Čep’s creative approach, particularly in the formation of characters, their actions, and the setting of the narrative within the specific environment of the fictional world. |
